Welcome back to another weekly build-in-public digest for CAPTD. This week we rolled out a substantial batch of updates across the core workspaces, free tools, and SEO infrastructure to make turning your finished photos into ready-to-publish social media content faster and more reliable than ever.
Shipped
- Spotlight Build Up mode & workspace refinements: We shipped the new Spotlight Build Up mode—the 7th mode available for creators—alongside a 'Send to a chat' feature and first-try quality improvements in the Snapshot workspace. Additionally, the Spotlight workspace no longer pre-selects Campaign by default, instead asking 'What do you want to promote?' and remembering your last used mode.
The Spotlight workspace now asks 'What do you want to promote?' on first visit.
- Snapshot quality checks & list flattening: We introduced automatic checks for Snapshot captions to detect invented senses (like sound or smell not mentioned in your notes), flag excessive craft-talk sentences, and enforce a length floor of 2 sentences or 20 words. We also fixed a bug where Snapshot captions were incorrectly formatted as bulleted lists when notes were provided, adding automatic list-to-prose flattening.

- Global Etsy fee calculator expansion: Our free Etsy fee calculator now supports CNY and RUB currencies, local language defaults, whole-yen formatting for JPY, and four new countries (Ireland, Portugal, Brazil, and Japan) with accurate local fee structures.
The Etsy fee calculator now supports new international markets and currencies.
- Pricing and pipeline upgrades: We shipped a real caption-compare feature powered by the live pipeline, a redesigned pricing pair and More options flow, embed customization, and Buffer CSV export.
Updated pricing pairs and caption-compare features now live.
- SEO and script optimizations: We resolved a batch of Search Console indexing issues including route-pattern 404s and permanent redirects for trailing slashes. We also fixed an issue where the Lemon Squeezy affiliate tracking script was unnecessarily injected into every page's HTML, ensuring it now only loads on referral landings and the pricing page.
